My teacher name was Mrs. Kathleen Morris form Victoria, Australia. In her blog post Blogging and the Literacy Curriculum, she explains that the concept of literacy education has changed as technology has evolved. Our students need to become transliterate and develop the ability to read, write, and interact across a range of platforms, tools, and media. With all the new technology being create, we won't need to teach kids how to read a book or write on paper.

In Mrs. Kathleen Morris post Looking Back, Looking Forward, she explains about getting ready for maternity leave and packing up her classroom. When reading her post, I realized that technology can be much more useful and time efficient. When she decided to get rigid of worksheets and use google docs to get the students more involve in the learning process. Mrs. Morris states that "It is clear to me that hands-on, authentic, collaborative, open-ended tasks have a much bigger impact on students than a prescribed worksheet." I definitely would be one of the ones with a worksheet but after reading her post I can value technology a lot more and how much it has evolved.
